General description
Transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 2 (UniProt: Q9WUD2; also known as TrpV2, Osm-9-like TRP channel 2, OTRPC2, Stretch-activated channel 2B, Vanilloid receptor-like protein 1, VRL-1) is encoded by the Trpv2 (also known as Sac2b, Vrl1) gene (Gene ID: 29465) in rat. TrpV2 is an ubiquitously expressed, calcium-permeable, non-selective cation channel with an outward rectification. It has been implicated in various physiological and pathological processes, including growth factor signaling, macrophage migration, cancer cell metastasis, heart disease, and neuronal cell development. It appears to be regulated by growth factors, like IGF1, PDGF, and morphogenetic neuropeptide/head activator. It is also activated by temperatures higher than 52 degree C, but is not activated by vanilloids and acidic pH. TrpV2 channel is upregulated by the nerve growth factor (NGF) via the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway to augment neurite outgrowth. Although NGF increases TrpV2 content, it does not induce the translocation of TrpV2 from cytoplasm to cell surface in PC12 cells. (Ref.: Cohen MR., et al. (2015). Mol. Cell Biol. 35(24): 4238-4252).
